Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

I was making a vague reference to that because I only had a vague recollection of a sneerclub discussion involving “eudaimonia”. Looked it up, I don’t think there was some major thing that happened. Rats use the word “eudaimonia” a lot, that seems to be pretty much it.

It might have been related to this:

Probably unrelated to the Eudaemons, the UC Santa Cruz grad students in the '70s who built hidden wearable computers to beat roulette.
